0014 Zombies! Song Ziqiong's Probe!
What?!
Chen Bai blinked. Did Song Ge really repeat what he said to her mother?! Is this big sister a bit clueless?!
But Chen Bai fell into contemplation. He never underestimated those standing at the top of the city's hierarchy. Their information channels, wealth, and the power they wield are beyond the imagination of ordinary people. The fact that they could find him and make this call was definitely not just because of Song Ge's cluelessness in relaying yesterday's conversation to her mother!
Thinking this, Chen Bai smiled faintly. He hadn't expected to make contact with Song Ziqiong so soon before the apocalypse erupted. But he wasn't nervous about it. In fact, he might even gain some benefits!
Not to mention, in the previous life, he wasn't much worse off. Although he didn't want to admit it, back then, he had the Dark Mother Goddess as a powerful backer. Even though the latter couldn't walk the apocalypse in her true form, what she could control was beyond the imagination of ordinary evolvers!
"Hello, Auntie Song!"
Listening to the confident voice on the phone, Song Ziqiong wasn't surprised. She smiled directly, "You're Song Ge's classmate, right? Song Ge has been spoiled by me since she was young, but due to my busy career, I don't know much about her. She doesn't have many close friends at the academy either. Can we find a time to meet and chat face-to-face? I'd like to know more about Song Ge's situation at the academy. Would that be alright?"
Chen Bai absolutely believed Song Ziqiong's words, especially her statement about spoiling Song Ge since she was young. But as for understanding Song Ge's situation, Chen Bai didn't believe a word of it. How could he not know when others didn't?
This woman had a stake in Jiang Da's shares. In other words, she was a board member of Jiang Da. As long as Song Ge didn't blow up the school, there wouldn't be any trouble. A bunch of school leaders were waiting to cover for the young lady. Otherwise, in his sophomore year, Chen Bai's campaign for vice president of the student union would have been nailed down just because he rejected Song Ge's pursuit.
Of course, Chen Bai wasn't the kind of person who refused a free meal. If he could smoothly sponge off her and climb to the peak of life, inheriting the Song family's industry, no one would refuse.
But Chen Bai knew Song Ge's character too well. However, knowing was one thing, and not caring about the past was another. The apocalypse was imminent, and new rules would completely abolish old ones. Even now, things were already different!
Listening to Song Ziqiong's almost off-the-cuff remarks on the phone, Chen Bai quickly replied with his magnetic voice, "No problem, just let me know the time and place!"
Jiangcheng, along the Yangtze River, the window-side hall booth of the Westin Hotel. Chen Bai met this famous woman. Even Chen Bai, who had seen countless women during the apocalypse in his previous life, including those famous female celebrities and idols, had to admit that this woman was among the top few he had seen.
A purple-red cheongsam highlighted every curve of her body. The mismatched Valentino high heels adorned with purple-red nail polish on her fair toes were extremely eye-catching.
"Hello, Chen Bai!"
Seeing Chen Bai's arrival, Song Ziqiong stood up quickly, extending her hand, while also appraising him from head to toe. It was an unusual outfit, not too matched, but for such an extraordinary woman, it was appropriate. She smiled at the sight of Chen Bai, and her gaze was as naked as Chen Bai's, making Song Ziqiong somewhat uncomfortable.
However, as a woman, she preferred to hear flattering words, even though Chen Bai wasn't lying. "So young and talented! If I were twenty years younger, I would definitely pursue Chen Bai just like my daughter did!"
This woman was quite interesting. "Don't talk about being twenty years younger. If given the chance now, I'd want to pursue Auntie too! After all, I haven't seen many people as beautiful as you!"
"Many!? Aren't I the most beautiful?"
Song Ziqiong chuckled. Although Chen Bai's words lacked subtlety, she played along. In fact, Song Ziqiong had overthought it. Chen Bai hadn't intentionally steered the conversation in this direction; he was simply stating a fact. He shook his head, "Not really. The most beautiful is a woman named Helrose."
With this statement, Song Ziqiong was truly stunned. She hadn't expected this young man to actually mention such a person. "Foreigner?!"
Song Ziqiong was startled. Chen Bai smiled, showing his perfectly aligned teeth, "An alien!"
The Dark Mother Goddess, real name: Helrose Andershill. Song Ziqiong was stunned once again. Then she burst into laughter, though it was extremely graceful and elegant, Chen Bai could still see a hint of sincerity. Women always preferred to hear flattering words, even though Chen Bai wasn't lying.
"Alright, take a look at what you want to eat. Auntie's treat. Let's talk about Song Ge!"
This woman was quite convincing. She inquired about Song Ge's studies and other matters quite astutely.
Chen Bai, on the other hand, felt a little overwhelmed. Before the apocalypse, he hadn't forgotten all the knowledge from school, but he couldn't possibly remember everything. However, with a little evasion, both parties clearly knew that this wasn't the focus.
Nevertheless, while chatting casually, Chen Bai occasionally glanced over to a nearby spot. Song Ziqiong seemed to be doing the same.
Chen Bai wasn't in a hurry. And sure enough, less than half an hour later, a scream suddenly rang out! Then, a very familiar scene unfolded. A zombie, its entire body covered in purple-black veins, eyes bloodshot, and nails black as ink, rushed out from a nearby hall and charged straight towards them!
Chen Bai's lips twitched. Song Ziqiong's probe was indeed lacking in subtlety.
The whole body was covered in blood, with what seemed to be flesh and blood of some creature in its hands and mouth.
No one would linger in the presence of such a zombie!
The few diners present, accompanied by a series of sharp screams, quickly ran towards the stairs.
Both psychotic killers and zombies are not good opportunities for bystanders!
However, Song Ziqiong seemed to be stunned, facing the zombie rushing towards her with lightning speed, as if she had been petrified and couldn't move!
Chen Bai smiled slightly, seemingly unaffected, and casually stabbed a piece of juicy steak, rich in myoglobin, with his fork.
He casually put it in his mouth.
Seeing the visibly nervous Song Ziqiong and the approaching zombie, which was moving as fast as an adult man running at full speed, Chen Bai suddenly stood up.
At this moment, no one could see clearly what had happened.
It was impossible to see how Chen Bai made his move!
Song Ziqiong was the same.
However, in less than a second, the next moment, that fierce zombie was pinned to the high-end wooden dining table with a sharp Western knife in a very strange posture!
Black blood splattered, staining the piece of steak that had only been eaten a few bites.
However, the pain seemed to have no effect on the zombie's frenzied desire for flesh and blood, even as it was pinned to the table.
But the strange thing was that under the instinctive hunting of the zombie virus, in the face of this man, the zombie seemed to completely ignore him!
From beginning to end, the zombie's blood-red eyes were fixed on Song Ziqiong, despite being pinned to the table just half a meter away from the two.
"Roar!"
The roar resounded.
The smell of blood even reached their faces!
In the corner, Frost had already aimed the muzzle of the 54 gun at the figure.
If anything went wrong, she could ensure that the zombie would be shot dead for the first time!
However, just as the zombie rushed towards them and was only two steps away from the dining table, Chen Bai suddenly stood up.
At this moment, Song Ziqiong's face turned extremely pale.
Because the next moment, Chen Bai actually lifted the zombie's slightly dried-up hair on its head, and although its hands were still pinned to the table, its head moved closer and closer to Song Ziqiong!
Song Ziqiong could only watch helplessly as the bloody and frenzied zombie mouthed to her, its blood-soaked jaws opening wider and wider!
"Let go of the lady!"
A disdainful voice rang out.
Chen Bai turned his head and glanced at the bodyguard holding the 54. And the big man in a black suit behind him was the same.
The fact that the bodyguard could openly carry this thing showed Song Ziqiong's power in Jiangcheng.
But Chen Bai didn't care. He had sensed the woman's tricks with Song Ziqiong long ago.
Chen Bai ignored it. Even if firearms made in the post-apocalypse would become useless lumps of iron, his physique might struggle to withstand the 54 in the opponent's hand now, but with his agility and reaction speed close to 30, he could definitely avoid being hit!
So he didn't need to care, just looked with interest at Song Ziqiong, who was slightly relieved, and then continued to hold the zombie's bloody mouth, moving closer and closer to Song Ziqiong.
"Bang!"
The sound was particularly muffled, but Frost stared dumbfoundedly at the scene before her.
Her confident blow only made the man look at her and leave behind a sentence:
"This is the first time, and it's also the last time."
At this moment, Song Ziqiong's face finally changed.
By now, she finally completely understood what kind of monster the young man in front of her was!
And most importantly, she could see in Chen Bai's indifference and coldness that there was no trace of remorse.
If he wanted to, he could really kill her and everyone present!
Song Ziqiong hurriedly said, "It's a misunderstanding, just a misunderstanding!"
Chen Bai smiled and, of course, had no intention of killing the beautiful woman.
His palm, which had been clasped behind Song Ziqiong's head, slowly moved to her cheek.
Feeling the smoothness under his fingertips, he smiled and said:
"Song Madam should have been clearer than me, right?! Didn't you ask someone to leave this soon-to-be zombie here?! Also, could you ask the little beauty holding that lump of iron in the corner to put it down?!"
Song Ziqiong's face turned extremely pale at this moment.
Because the next moment, Chen Bai actually lifted the slightly dried-up hair on the head of the zombie, and although its hands were still pinned to the table, its head moved closer and closer to Song Ziqiong!
Song Ziqiong could only watch helplessly as the bloody and frenzied zombie mouthed to her, its blood-soaked jaws opening wider and wider!
"Go change your clothes and then we'll talk again!"
Chen Bai smiled faintly, hinting at Song Ziqiong's ear.
Watching the figure of the young man slowly descending in the elevator of the Westin Hotel, Song Ziqiong couldn't help but shiver, looking at the corpse at her feet, and the severed zombie head placed in the plate, tears finally falling silently.
The Queen of Song, who was high and mighty in Jiangcheng, was actually scared to tears.
